From Old Ðusyþ tə̨tmįfšeʔiršęę, tətmįfseʔirsęę "to be hopeful", from tə̨tmįf "to carry on the shoulders" (c. Modern Ðusyþ ðötnyf of the same meaning) + šeʔiršęę "dream" (c. Modern Ðusyþ se'irs 'to wonder, to dream'), literally "to carry dreams on one's shoulders".

More profound when you consider that Doctors Without Borders rarely makes political statements.
In #UNSC mtg on Middle East, @MSF SG Christopher Lockyear says: "Israeli forces have attacked our convoys, detained our staff, bulldozed our vehicles, hospitals have been bombed and raided. And now for a second time, one of our staff shelters has been hit. This pattern of attacks is either intentional or indicative of reckless incompetence. Our colleagues in #Gaza are fearful that as I speak to you today, they will be punished tomorrow."
He adds: "The humanitarian response in Gaza today is an illusion. A convenient illusion that perpetuates a narrative that this war is being waged in line with international laws. Calls for humanitarian assistance have echoed across this chamber. Yet in Gaza we have less and less every day, less space, less medicine, less food, less water, less safety."

the fact that you can pass really well and still get called a man makes it really clear that the underlying issue isn't even about appearance it's literally just people think it's okay to hurt you because you're a tranny

Hey students, here’s a pro tip: do not write an email to your prof while you’re seriously sick.
Signed, a person who somehow came up with “dear hello, I am sick and not sure if I’ll be alive to come tomorrow and I’m sorry, best slutantions, [name]”.
